Cetus—Sui’s Top Liquidity Hub—Gutted by $260M Exploit; Token Tanks 90%
Another day, another crypto bloodbath. Cetus, the leading liquidity provider for the Sui blockchain, just got carved open in a $260 million security breach—sending its token into freefall.
Who needs banks when DeFi rug-pulls itself? The exploit vaporized confidence faster than a meme coin’s utility, with Cetus’ token shedding 90% of its value overnight. Traders are left holding the bag while ’anonymous hackers’ add another trophy to their ledger.
Here’s the kicker: the attack didn’t even need sophisticated tech—just the usual mix of overleveraged protocols and wishful thinking. Stay tuned for the inevitable ’we’re improving security’ post-mortem that always follows these fiascos.
